Sanchin Kata: Three Battles Karate Kata

Traditional Training Methods for Karate Power The Sanchin Kata, or 'Three Battles Sequence', is an ancient form that can be traced back to the roots of karate. Some consider it the missing link between Chinese kung fu and Okinawan karate. Sanchin Kata is known to develop extraordinary quickness and generate remarkable power. This program breaks down the form piece by piece, body part by body part, so that the hidden details of the kata are revealed. Regular practice of Sanchin Kata conditions the body, trains correct alignment, and teaches the essential structure needed for generating power within all of your karate movements. Many karate practitioners believe that Sanchin Kata holds the key to mastering the traditional martial arts. Though it can be one of the simplest forms to learn, it is one of the most difficult to perfect. Goju-Ryu 5th-dan Kris Wilder offers in-depth exploration of Sanchin Kata, with detailed instruction of the essential posture, linking the spine, generating power, and demonstration of the complete Sanchin Kata. Simply put, your Karate will never be the same.

Reviews :

Sensei Kris Wilder has done a marvelous job presenting the all-important intricacies of the sanchin kata in this highly informative DVD. The production values are of high quality, to include beautifully filmed footage outside where the kata is performed on forest paths and even on a rocky creek bed, to the excellent camera work in the studio that allows the viewer to see the presentation from all angles.

The sensei breaks down the kata by body part, beginning at the feet and progressing up to the head, explaining in rich detail the dos and don't of each that will help you bring out the best in your sanchin form and, in time, your other kata, your basic technique, and even your sparring.

Take it from a martial artist who has been training since 1965, this information -crammed DVD is a winner.
